Technically the brewing of beer by ancient civilizations is a synthesis. Making Wine as well. So ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians (as well as many others) synthesized alcohol.
The alchemists, although they had no real chemistry understanding, were also synthesizing some things.
In the 1800's after chemistry as a science of experimentation became more accepted, many substances were synthesized. One of the most notable was in the 1820's when Wohler synthesized urea proving that allorganic chemicals did not have to come from nature. Earlier (date unsure) in the late 1700's/early 1800's Cavendish burned pure hydrogen gas and synthesized water. He did not publicize his findings but later these were repeated by Lavoisierand most give Lavoisier the credit instead of Cavendish. Most don't call this a 'synthesis' but just a proof that water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen. Bayer made aspirin (and a fortune).
What else can I help you with?
What cell part has the job of processing and packaging molecules synthesized by the cell?
The Golgi apparatus is the cell part responsible for processing and packaging molecules synthesized by the cell. It modifies, sorts, and directs these molecules to their appropriate destinations within or outside the cell.
Where are Secretory proteins and membrane molecules are synthesized mainly by what?
Secretory proteins and membrane molecules are mainly synthesized by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in eukaryotic cells. The ER is a network of membranes where proteins are synthesized and processed before being transported to their final destinations within the cell.
What types of molecules and cell parts would be synthesized during the growth phase of the cell cycle?
New organells are formed.Proteins and DNA are synthesized efficiently.
Energy is primarily when organic molecules are synthesized and when they are broken down?
Energy is required when organic molecules are synthesized because this process involves building complex molecules which requires input of energy. When organic molecules are broken down, energy is released because the breaking of bonds releases stored energy from the molecules. This energy can be used by the cell for various cellular processes.
Why does a cell need to break down polymers into monomers?
Because macromolecules are large molecules and are insoluble. It is easier to store them and use them when they have been hydrolysed to smaller molecules and are made soluble.
When is vitamin D synthesized?
Vitamin D is synthesized when modified Cholesterol molecules. . .
Vitamin D is synthesized when what molecules are modified?
Cholesterol

How many molecules are synthesized by living organisms?
Billions, but what needs attention are the trillions of unneeded molecules that are 'automatically' excluded from the cells of living organisms.
Why does a cell need to break down polymers into monomers?
Because macromolecules are large molecules and are insoluble. It is easier to store them and use them when they have been hydrolysed to smaller molecules and are made soluble.
What molecules are synthesized in light reaction?
In the light reactions of photosynthesis, molecules such as ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) are synthesized. These molecules store energy that is used in the subsequent dark reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose.
Vitamin d is synthesized when modified?
Vitamin D is synthesized when modified Cholesterol molecules. . .
What molecules are synthesized from carbon skeletons bonded to hydrogen atoms?
Molecules synthesized from carbon skeletons bonded to hydrogen atoms include carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. These biomolecules are essential for various cellular functions and are the building blocks of life.
What organelle in the cytosol are proteins synthesized?
Proteins are synthesized in ribosomes, which can be found in the cytosol of a cell. Ribosomes are responsible for translating the genetic information from mRNA into protein molecules.
